The Tokaido highway started out as a dusty and lonely dirt road, avoided by commoners, infested by bandits and scoundrels who preyed on the innocent few who dared travel its length. More than just a road, the Tokaido (eastern sea route) took on a life of its own as it evolved into Japan’s most important thoroughfare during the Edo period, connecting the great cities of Edo and Kyoto. Nobles, military, and peasants alike made up the pulse of the road’s life, and its scenic landscapes and diverse travelers have been highlighted in history books and artistically portrayed in art and literature.

It is an amazing story and whether you are a seasoned traveler or first-time visitor to Japan, this tour offers you a sampling of all that Japan has to offer, from unique locales to “must see” tourist attractions. Skyscrapers to ancient temples and sacred mountains, a variety of experiences awaits you – ride the bullet train, Mt. Fuji’s 5th Station, Nara’s awe-inspiring Great Buddha, visit the tea fields and enjoy a hands-on experience, traditional Japanese markets, shopping street, and much, much more!

For modern day shopping and sightseeing, we have included Shibuya Sky, a new landmark facing world-famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing along with the must do favorites, Tsukiji Market, Ameyoko, Sugamo Jizo Shopping Street on a fair day, Kyoto’s Ninenzaka & Sannensaka, and Nara’s Higashimuki Shopping Street.  

 

Our tour begins in Tokyo, undeniably one of the planet’s most exciting cities, deeply rooted in traditions intertwined with its mind-boggling modernity. After Mt. Fuji, we are off to Kyoto and Nara, old Japan with its quiet temples, sublime gardens, and colorful shrines. We end in Osaka, a colorful city with its dazzling neon and vivid storefronts.
